It's simple, it's fun, it's origami! By following these instructions, you can make an easy and cute puppy dog face.

Steps

1

Get yourself a piece of square paper in a color of your choice. To make a square paper, get a normal paper, fold the top left corner to the opposite edge, forming a triangle. Trim or cut off the extra paper. When you unfold the triangle, you will have a square paper.

2

Fold the paper in half diagonally so that you have a triangular piece of paper.

3

Make two smaller folds on the ends of the large triangle, to give yourself two smaller triangles. These will be the ears.

Tips

Draw the face however you want - you could even have the dog's tongue sticking out a little! Or, you could draw a flower on its ear.

You could write on the back of the dog for a birthday card.

There are many ways to fold origami dog faces - look them all up and try them. Don't limit yourself to just one!

You will probably get it on the first try.

There are plenty of variations -- be creative.

Try using different sized pieces of paper to create different sized dogs, or even consider writing a message on the inside of the dog's ears for a great birthday card!

A 6x6 inch piece of a paper is a popular square size for origami! Use it when you fold your dog face for the first time - after you grow familiar with the steps, start using smaller or bigger pieces of paper!

Fold tips of ears for a more complex dog face.

For easy ways, just use plain origami paper on Step 1.

Warnings

Beware of paper cuts, if you get one, a simple bandage should do the trick. Be sure not to get one in the crease of your thumb and index finger on your writing hand.
